Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bass, bass, bass, bass
Nasty
Three

With music by our side
To break the color lines
Let's work together
To improve our way of life
Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life? (Sing)
We are a part of the rhythm nation (woo)
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers, we can get it right one time (sing it up)
We are a part of the rhythm nation

This is the test
No struggle, no progress (lend)
Lend a hand to help
Your brother do his best
Things are getting worse
We have to make them better
It's time to give a damn
Let's work together, come on, now

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life? (Sing)
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers, we can get it right one time (sing it up)
We are a part of the rhythm nation (everybody)

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life? (Sing)
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers, we can get it right one time (sing it up)
We are a part of the rhythm nation (everybody)

Bass, bass, bass, bass
Bass, bass, bass, bass

Sing it people, sing it children (rhythm nation)
Sing it if you want a better way of life
Sing it people, sing it children (rhythm nation)
Sing it if you want a better way of life

Bass, bass, bass, bass
